Federal parliamentary secretary for finance Makhdoomzada Zain Hussain Qureshi said on Thursday that government was taking the development of south Punjab seriously and huge funding was being pumped into infrastructure uplift initiatives to end the sense of deprivation among the people. Past governments not only ignored south Punjab but also shifted its development funding to the districts of their choice, Zain Qureshi said adding that the practice created sense of deprivation among the people of this area. The PTI government, however, has put an end to this practice and allocated huge funds for south Punjab uplift, said Zain during visits to different union councils in NA-157 constituency.
